Best Lawyer Experience!!

I think this is the best experience I've ever had working with a lawyer. He is a court appointed lawyer but he took the time, care and consideration for my case he got me the best outcome I could have ever imagined. I highly, highly recommend him for any of your legal issues that you might have. I am... so grateful that I was able to meet with him and work with him.

Mr. Thomas is very hands on and is very good at what he does. My experience with him will forever be unforgettable. He is thorough & takes his time cause he really cares for his clients. I would recommend him 10 out 10 for whoever is looking for a lawyer.

Couldnt Ask for someone better

I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Lewis. His excellent communication skills ensured I always felt informed and supported throughout the process. Lewis set clear expectations from the start, leaving no room for surprises, and his deep understanding of my situation gave me confid...ence that I was in capable hands. He was always professional, responsive, and compassionate. If you’re looking for a lawyer who truly cares and delivers exceptional service, I highly recommend Lewis

Above and beyond

I was working with this law firm for a good while giving the fact that he was a court appointed lawyer at the time he took the utmost care to make sure my case was handled fairly

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
